This is the card that I made for my cousin Brenda. Brenda owns an Alpaca Farm in Wisconsin and we all love going there to see the animals. Her favorite animal is Arthur the Lama. Every time we go to Brenda's we have to out to the pasture and see Arthur. Now you know when I saw this piece of artwork on the Birthday Bash cart I had to make this birthday card for Brenda. Join me this morning with your cup of coffee or tea while I put this card together.

Wasn't that great and I got to use this great new too that Patsy Gamble sent me and it was so much fun. It took me a while at first I think because of the thickness of my plastic. But it worked out great.

I decided I would try using a few stickles on the front of the card and I think it turned out great. Her are a few close ups that I thought you might enjoy.

Here is a close up of Arthur. Brenda takes things she enjoys and shows Arthur. It is my understanding that this card was shown to him too!

Another close up of the front of the card. Oh by the way the paper is DCWV the Lemon Stack.

This is the way the card looks from the inside , nice and clean looking isn't it?

Here is the inside of the card and the color is just right.

Here is a last look of this adorable shaker card. Be sure to make some for your Birthday Cards as they are so much fun both for the creator and the receiver.

I hope you enjoyed today's post, I enjoyed sharing with you. Thank you for your sweet-sweet words of encouragement. Your comments always continue to inspire me.

It's that time of year where you need to start thinking about Christmas. Around March this year I signed a list on Facebook for a Random Act of Kindness (RAK). In it you signed your name and whoever started it would send you a gift. You were then to place it on FB and you would send a gift to the first five that signed up under you. Well I had six people within hours and then put a comment that it was full. Well my first 2 ladies I sent them each a little Note card set that was monogrammed. My net two ladies I made a packet of 10 cards complete with envelopes, occasional cards. Then there is this little gift and I made 2 sets of 16 Christmas Tags. So much fun and I think they will enjoy.

I went to my mothers house this weekend so I cut all my tags out and packaged up all kinds of jewels, stickles and ribbons to decorate each tag. She sat at the dining room table embroidering a baby quilt for my new granddaughter that is due in November and I stickled. We went to dinner and when we came back I was able to glue on all the gems.

I hope you enjoyed all the sparkle and it puts you in the mood to start making your Christmas goodies.

The reindeer I kept simple by just putting a red gem on it's nose.

The little mouse I stickled and added the gems.

Sorry you can't see how pretty the FaLaLa is, but it is adorable.

This is another little baby Jesus. I added 2 rows of gems along with some stickles on the basket.

I love the light bulb it is so sparkley you have to love it.

Another Reindeer, just a different look.

The snowflake just glistens.

Another Reindeer.

A snowflake with a different look. Don't you love how the paper glistens?

This little mouse is on a wobble and is so cute when in motion.

This little reindeer is put on with foam tape giving us plenty of dimension.

Little Rudolf wiggles his way through the sky.

Our little enguin was placed on plain paper that is why I added the gems to this wobbler.

Our little owl is also a wobbler and is as cute as can be.

This is our little baby Jesus. I addles lots of stickles to the north star along with a large gem. The little gems look like clouds, wind or stars depending on your imagination.

Well I hope you like today's post. I had so much fun putting these tags together. Thank you for joining us today. Thank you for your sweet-sweet words of encouragement. Your comments continue to inspire me.

Hi, this is Charlotte C.Thank you, Sheila, for inviting me to share in your awesome blog again this month.I used an image from the Silhouette store to
create some thank you cards as part of my gift at the new mom-to-be’s baby
shower I was invited to.The original
had some eyelet holes and “thank you” cut out, so first thing I did was delete
them so I could stamp on the front, and it made for quicker cutting of the
little dress.I sized my cards at 4.25 wide, locked the aspect
ratio.

Because I used double sided card stock I needed to line the
inside in order for there to be a place to write.That was easy to do by using the internal
offset feature on my Cameo and then deleting all the internal cuts so I had
just an outline.Once the Cameo cut
everything, I just used my trimmer to slice everything in half.I was able to get six halves on one sheet of
12 x 12 card stock by hanging part of the image off the mat.

I used my MISTI so that all the stamping was uniform on each
card.An empty A2 size envelope box
covered with designer paper worked beautifully to hold a dozen thank you cards
with envelopes.Here’s the finished
products.

I also used my Cameo to cut this cute little dresser card
which went with my gifts.A handmade
envelope with a tab to insert the flap made it easier to be opened at the
shower.

Thank you for stopping by today.Hope you enjoyed seeing these cards.Happy fall to all.
